Pumpkin Cupcakes with Honey Frosting

Muffins are just sad cupcakes without frosting. Don’t get me wrong; I love pumpkin bread, but pumpkin cupcakes are even better because you can add honey frosting to them and stop pretending that it’s healthy. Although I did substitute coconut oil for the butter in this recipe, because I only had one stick of butter and I knew I needed it for the frosting. So, I don’t feel too guilty eating these for breakfast. Because I am an adult.

If you don’t like sweet, these are still good without it, too. The spices aren’t too strong, they baked to perfect peaks even in my finicky oven.

These pair perfectly with a rainy afternoon of alternating laying in bed reading and cleaning your apartment, and are as good with a tumblr of whiskey as they are with a cup of coffee (I of course taste tested it both ways).
